As illustrated by these 2017 statistics, the situation remains largely unchanged....nothing has really changed since then!

This is such a powerful message and is what rescues deal with everyday. For every pup or dog that we save, we know there are thousands more that we didn't get to help. 😭😭😭

Today, I didn't have room for your dog; I had to say no. You said you were moving and couldn't take him with you. You couldn't wait till next week for me to be able to help, so you dropped him in a parking lot. He was hit by a car and died.💔

I didn't have room for your puppies today, I had to say no. You don’t want all these puppies and they have to go today. I spent hours trying to find help. When I finally do, I call you back, but it's too late, you "took care of them."
The high-kill shelter emailed "the list" today. I didn't see it in time, I was busy trying to find help for your puppies. When I offer to save them, it's already too late as they are all gone.💔

I tried to save your dog today, but I was too late. The damage you did was too much to overcome. Your dog attacked someone today, and now he dies for your neglect.
You tagged me on a Facebook post today, someone giving their dog away for free. I thought someone else would save him, so I didn't respond. No one did. Instead he was given to a dog fighter.

You dropped off your dog today. After 13 years he pees on your carpet, so he had to go. He had cancer. I held his paw while he drew his last breaths in fear surrounded by strangers.💔

You called me today, your dog was acting strangely, and you can't afford the vet. Your dog was in labor, but you didn't notice until it was too late because she lives out on a chain. She is gone when I get there.💔

You hear about those the rescuers save, but all we can think about is those we lost.
Today. Everyday .💔

Thank you to all those that have the most fragile of hearts and wake up each day knowing it will be broken. We need you more than you know! 💜

Please consider joining us in our mission to save those without a voice. You can help by adopting & if you can't adopt maybe you can foster, it's free & saves lives! If you can't adopt or foster can you send a donation (monetary, food, blankets, puppy pads, toys, beds) to a rescue? If you cannot donate can you volunteer (transportation, helping with events and fundraisers, cleaning kennels, walking dogs, taking pictures, stuffing mailers) 💛

If you cannot volunteer can you share the photos of the animals we are trying to save? Your share can save that 🐶 dogs life because the right person saw it! If you cannot share can you please not be negative when we lose one ?💉

Doing nothing is part of the problem..please join us & speak for those who cannot speak for themselves🙏
